The batteries are new, in original packaging. So far this has been a great find. The product came within a week. I charged them and have been using them with no indications that they will not perform like the original batteries.
I checked these battery packs at my local specialty tool store.$86.00 a piece.I saved lots of green on Amazon.Thanks
If I hadn't labeled them, I probably wouldn't be able to tell which were the old worn out batteries and which were the new ones. Maybe I got a bum package but it is too late to return as I used the heck out of them for a job I needed them for. I bought these to replace my stock batteries that came with my drill/driver kit. They don't hold a charge nearly as long as the original ones did. At least they were cheap.
Again after only moderate use one of the new batteries failed. In May 2008 I purchased the two pack. But rather than buy new equipment, I am buying another 2 pack from Amazon as their price and service is very good. Makita 194157-8 1434 14.4-Volt 2.6 Amp Hour NiMH Pod Style Battery, 2 PackI purchased the makita 14.4 impact driver kit with two batteries 3years ago. With only modest intermittment use, one of the batteries failed. I like the power and performance of the unit and the batteries(when they are working) but was very disappointed in the battery life on 2 of the 4 batteries.
ONCE FULLY CHARGED IT LASTED LONGER THAN I EXPECTED, AND AFTER TWO WEEKS OF NOT USING IT, IT DRAINED ALMOST NONE.SECOND THE PRICE, IS UNBELIEVABLY CHEAPER IN A TWO PACK. IN ALL I'M VERY HAPPY WITH THE PRODUCT FIRST, IT PERFORMED WELL. SOME CHARGED ALMOST THE SAME PRICE FOR A SINGLE BATTERY THAN AMAZON FOR TWO PACK.
